For writer and artist Diana Greene, reality is limitless. Reality can be witnessed and described, revealed and shaped, expected and unexpected. That tenet drives Diana's work whether she's teaching elementary school students, writing articles, telling stories on the radio, or making photographs.

When Diana first began her career as a radio journalist at a CBS station, she considered reality objective. Fact-based. True. That idea began shifting, however, when she worked as a writer and producer at CNN and discovered how subjective stories can be. The mere selection of fact opens the door to interpretation.

Shortly after becoming a mother, Diana wrote a book, 79 Ways to Calm a Baby, published by Simon & Schuster and then, deciding to invent, rearrange, and reimage reality in her work, she completed a Masters in Fine Arts in fiction from Arizona State University. Diana's short stories, articles, and documentary work have appeared in national and local journals and museum exhibitions.

In 1993, Diana entered the public schools as an artist in residence and discovered she loved teaching children the power of language. From the ranching communities of Arizona to the inner city, Diana has led elementary school students and faculty through her narrative writing workshops. In 2003, she enrolled in a "Literacy through Photography" course at Duke University with Wendy Ewald. The moment Diana entered the darkroom, a fascination with the wordless, visual world ignited. Photography became more than a teaching tool, it became a passion.

Diana received a certificate from the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University in 2005 for her photo narrative, "The Search for Wonder." The winner of numerous awards for her photographs, Diana is the proud recipient of a 2007 Regional Project Grant from the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Arts Council and an artist grant from The Kenan Institute, which supported her most recent solo show, "Wait and See."

Diana lives in Winston-Salem, North Carolina with her husband and, occasionally, her two children.
